Curious Adventures in Nature Smartphone Workshop

Saturday 6 July

In this event, multi-disciplinary contemporary artist Graham Fudger will explain how to use your smartphone camera to capture and manipulate exquisite images of nature that explore colour, texture and light. The workshop will begin with a session in the Museum of Natural History where Graham will outline his approach to finding aesthetic value in nature. Participants can then explore University Parks, taking photos of their surroundings, including an opportunity to learn how to use time-lapse and plant identifier apps. The workshop will conclude back at the Museum.
